What is definitely being argued unironically is "it doesn't matter that humans are sentient", and I would still consider that misanthropy

The point is, we have no idea what "sentient" or "intelligent" even means. If we agreed on the definitions, the debate would have been settled long ago.
I don't see where they said that; could you give me a quote? It does not seem to me that they are addressing humans at all, except as a foil to LLMs.
